Saw David Gilmour tonight - Progressive Rock Music Forum

ok so i just got home and i'm really tired but here goes

first of all Rick Wright was playing keyboards with David on this tour, that was a pleasent suprise

but he basically played the enitre 'On an Island" album for the first half of the show, it was really good

then for the second half of the show, he went to the 'more recognizable music' - all Pink Floyd favorites.

they opened with Shine on you Crazy Diamond (awesome), then they played 'Breath' and 'Time' (awesome), then 'High Hopes' from "the division bell" really great song, david played like 4 instruments on that one, then something from "A momentary lapse of reason" which i can't remember, and then finaly the highlight of the night "echoes" in its entirity... wow that was a great suprise, there was also a great laser light show during the trippy middle section that was really cool

then for an encore he played "Wish you were here" and "comfortably numb" which was no suprise, but still awesome

great show, his voice sounded better today than it did on that DVD of David from a couple years ago, and better than it did during Live Aid

wonderful show, great night
